The Word To Live By: 2-27-26
Phil Waggoner
I am the way, the truth, and the life. NO man comes to the Father except through me. John 14:6
The Word To Live By: Jesus said He was the truth. John 1 says that the spoken Word became flesh and lived among us, exposing the darkness in our life and being the light to our life. If you believe the Bible is the written plan of God, the will of God for your life (and I do), then you must believe that it is the truth that all other truths must be measured against. He is quantitative and the qualitative truth. In other words, Jesus is the standard by which we can, and must, judge the rest of the world’s truth claims. He also said that He was the way to living eternal life. It’s only through Him we find true and eternal life. True life comes from following Jesus’ words and His path for our life. A true and meaningful life begins with knowing Jesus on a personal level by making Him the Lord of your life. He alone has access to the good life, the abundant life that God intends us to live (Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.”), as well as eternity with Him in heaven. I try to spend the beginning of every day thanking Him for revealing the true path to life and salvation to me and for making it possible to have a relationship with Him. Continue to learn from Jesus through His Word and share the hope He offers with others in your life by a lifestyle of being a doer of the Word and not a hearer only.
